Fighting A war with AMR is not only about bigger guns and newer guns with better antibiotics and more research but also on prevention of infections especially those acquired in hospitals which lead to usevif these antibiotics- focus needs to be on a registry of infections and IPC techniques being implemented as these simple action items get overlooked all the time so you have unsafe injections, double dipping of injections in multi dose vials on different patients, reuse of Syringes instead of ensuring only auto disable Syringes are used in public healthcare , not changing the IV set every time you changed an IV Catheter and vice Versa etc

Again it is the G20 countries. What hope is there for the rest who many times have to pay such elevated prices for medicine due to the laboratories' royalties? Laboratories of course need to make profits in order to be able to do research, but the price difference from lab to consumer is most of the time outrageous
